Chapter 762: "I'm sure you're so soft-hearted that you wouldn't letface hardship. Right, Daniela?" Elyse beamed, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes softening. “I'm not asking for much, just three small requests." Elyse raised three fingers, lowering one with each request she made. "First, you will providewith a monthly allowance of five hundred thousand." Cedric, overhearing, frowned in disapproval.
Lillian's face tightened with displeasure.
Elyse hesitated but then glanced at Daniela, whose calm, unreadable expression filled her with confidence. "Second, you know I can't just sit around and do nothing. You should builda lavish retirement estate, inspired by the country's grandest one, so I can earn sincwhile relaxing in my later years." Lillian narrowed her eyes.

How could anyone be this shameless? It turned out Elyse was indeed capable of such behavior.
Daniela asked calmly, "And what's the third?" Elyse realized Daniela had already agreed to the first two demands. "For the third, I'd like a share of Elite Lux's stock, just like your mother kindly gaveshares in Harper Group. Your mother was always generous, and I'm sure you wouldn't disappoint me.
